I also take carnation with 1% milk everything else on your list I refuse to take. I still have shakes at home from before surgery. Atkins mocha latte & fake slim fast. I'm basically on Popsicle most of the day. My body is weird. I'm actually not hungry.

I think I would diet if not for popsicle. I don't think it's on my list but it's only 20 calories. I have Jello on my list that I did notice. I'm going to make it today it's sugar free.< /p>

i initially did my whey Protein (body fortress from Walmart vanilla) with Decaf coffee...ICED.

you literally CANNOT taste it.

everything is going to taste crappy untill you get it all out of your system.

I hated everything for 3 weeks ..misery. Now my favorites are salads and greek yogurt.... its amazing. woulda never eaten this stuff before.

greek yogurt when you get approved for it is awesome with splenda, tastes just like regular and you get a lot of Protein.< /p>

I talked to my doctor today. I literally was having a breakdown. I was crying so bad. He now has me on liquid only for the next 24-48 hrs. I do not need to worry about Protein right now. I am starting to get dehydrated. I am having hot flashes (I am only 37) and he said that is the withdrawal from carbs. I am eating Popsicles, Water, tea, broth, Jello, etc. I also bought some Oikos plain yogurt, which I love but think I got dumping syndrome from it, my belly was sore, I went to bed. I will try it one more time to see if that was it for sure and if so I guess I will have to cross that off the list. I also had an Edy's fruit bar so I am not sure it that did it either. I was also put of murals as I have not been able to make bowel movements, howere I was yesterday. Funny how taking a movement is exciting at my age. Lol

Thanks for your support. I have a very supportive family but obviously they don't know how I physically feel like you guys do! Anyone from the Grafton/Worcester Massachusetts area?

It is best o get your fluids in. The Protein is very important but you also have to stay hydrated. I eat the light n fit yogurt. Also try sugar free Popsicles or no sugar added.

You need protien!!

Try the unjury unflavored. You can put that in Crystal Light... or try the sugar free Hawiian Punch. It's not bad at all.

Only eat 2 oz of SF Jello or SF pudding at one time. If you do yogurt... be sure that you only eat 2 oz and be sure that it's a Light and Low Fat brand. Never take more than 6grams of suger per 2oz serving. Try the SF popcicles as well. You need to figure out if you do better with warm or cold... try some Low Fat beef broth.

It's hard to get the liquids in, but you should be sipping every few minutes to remain hydrated. Be sure you are taking your Vitamins too. Try not to gulp... just sips. Are you on an acid reducer? If so, take it before bed... that may help.

I am 3 weeks post op and it's been a challenge but it's worth it!

I would think the dumping would mor likely be from the fruit bar....

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
